I’ve been tested 3 times and tested once for antibodies. Negatives across the board.

In the cockpit at work is like the perfect storm for being exposed to Covid..You are touching everything others are, and I have noticed most guys I fly with have stopped wiping everything down now. You get not only germs from others pilots, you are getting whomever they were exposed too as well.
